Meet our team

Working with us:

We’re very serious when it comes to great design…but not about life itself. The team at Bonham is approachable, friendly, and caring. We’re also open and transparent in all our business practices. As you’ll discover, working with us is simply damn good fun.

It could also take you to some surprising places. We can arrange for you to meet the artist who created your favourite piece, for instance. Or we can personally introduce you to our network of furniture design studios and galleries – anywhere in the world.

I’ve loved working with the team – prior to finding them, I’d already engaged 2 other designers, who for want of a better explanation gave me variations on the design I’d given them. Jason on the other hand talked to me about how we were going to work in the space, what I needed, what was important – I now have something completely creatively different far beyond anything I was thinking originally.
